not abolitionists, but they don't like this idea of the federal government intervening in state affairs in this way. they don't like local officials having to go along with federal slave catchers. so many people who are not by any means, many northerners who are not by any means abolitionists are concerned about this. and you could say in some respects the compromise of 1850 did what abolitionists had failed to do thus far, that is, it really alarmed northerners regarding the slavery issue. there's a lot of fallout from that as you'll see. you can see here's a broad side from boston warning boston has a significant free black population that they needed to be concerned, worried, careful about being kidnapped. all right. for several reasons the compromise would prove to be very unhealthy for the second party system. there were those who favored the compromise as the definitive revolution of a slavery debate. remember i noted how once vice president and now president fillmore wanted to enforce the loyalty to the compromise within the whig party. use it as a kind of litmus test. just as northern democrats wanted support for the compr

does is instruct state police to enforce federal immigration laws, for instance, by calling federal officialsf a person they arrest can't verify his legal status. the heart of this case is the balance of state and federal power, not immigration. do you think that the justices are following that line of argument? >> i do with respect to the what the "wall street journal" was talking about which is that a state officer who pulls somebody over has reason to believe that they may not be a registered properly and maybe a legal alien and they ask the federal government if they want the person held and they check the immigration status, i do think the supreme court believes in all likelihood that's cooperative thing that the state is doing and it's the state's prerogative. part of the law that doesn't get discussed as much in either that op-ed or by clement that says and we're going to headache it a crime to not register properly, that's one i think the supreme court at least four justices which is all the opponents need right now will say really interferes with federal immigration policy. >> and i
